    Thank you, Fr. Chris, for this very interesting information on today’s episode on Voting - the teachings of the Church - Living Divine Mercy. It’s so powerful that awakens one’s conscience to seek the truth and follow it. We must never evade what’s true because the voice of God talking to us is the only truth for eternal life. If we desire to experience continuous peace, love and joy, our conscience must always be attuned to the will of God.
    Thanks to Jessica Freyne for sharing her story that helps many people understand their own struggles in the light of faith and love. What a wonderful contribution she is doing that makes a huge part in their lives. And to all who support this life-saving work, may God continue to bless your beautiful heart and soul. Thank you everyone and prayers for you.

      Thank you for your spiritual support of our country. I pray it’s not too long before you are able to become a naturalized American citizen. You are the person who embodies what makes America the land of the free and home of the brave. Like my Catholicism I no longer take my American citizenship for granted. May God bless you.

    Father Chris Alar thank you for your insight and inspiration in details for the topic: Voting: What the Church Actually Teaches - Living Divine Mercy (EWTN) Ep 164 as His Holiness Emeritus Pope Benedict noted: Pope Benedict XVI wrote extensively on what is called the three non-negotiables when it comes to casting your vote: the dignity of human life, the sanctity of marriage between one man and one woman, and the preservation of religious liberty. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains that while we are not single-issue voters, the contrary to these can never be allowed. Then hear the inspiring story of a crisis pregnancy organization in Scranton, Pennsylvania, working hard to support pregnant women.

    This was a very informative episode Fr Chris. I was also able to catch the Grace Force interview earlier yesterday and I listened to this episode this morning. You have clearly done your homework on the topic of voting in-the election. You and a few other well-known priests like Fr Heilman and Father Rippinger have guided us with clear heads and factual knowledge. I especially like your emphasis on remembering to vote on the “common good.” That clearly one candidate will save many more lives than the other. I pray your words have fallen on open minds. I also hope that your discussion about single issue voting will have made a dent in even the most closed minds. Many citizens have been praying very hard that the outcome of the election indeed is in favor of the common good. We pray that God in his ordained will brings it about. If in God‘s permissive will, the wrong people are elected then our country will really need prayers. Thank you for this segment with Mother Angelica. She hits the nail on the head every time. God bless you, Father Chris I am happy that you will be at homebase for a while so we will get to hear your wisdom on a regular basis.

    Thank you Fr. Chris, coming from SouthAmerica (I am Peruvian American) Country where started the “Theology Of Liberation” that is a combination of FAITH + COMMUNISM… Implying that Jesus came just for the poor and was against the rich… in other words that Jesus was a Communists… yes, that is for real, I grew up in that type of Catholic church in my country, and unfortunately it’s ALL OVER LATIN AMERICA.
    Theology of Liberation even have their own Bible (Biblia Latinoamericana) with “notes” that takes the word of JESUS out of context.
    So, it’s SO REFRESHING learning from you, and many others Saint Priests (Fr Altman, Fr. Ripperger, Fr. Heilman, Bishop Strickland, Fr. leo, Padre Javier Olivera Ravassi from Argentina, Padre Juan Razo García from México) and now have access to the truth and beauty of my Catholic faith.

      Please be careful; though I agree that the poison of communism has at times infiltrated the Church, so has fascism and white supremacy (from the times of St. Martin de Porres and before). Also, too many holy people who questioned systemic poverty in the Americas were attacked, accused of Marxism, and murdered/ disappeared, including St Óscar Romero de las Américas. Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, ora por nos. Que el Señor de los Milagros siempre nos cuide y proteja. Saludos y bendiciones.

    Thank you Father Alar.
    Regarding the non-negotiable "Dignity of Human Life," there are a wide range of issues from the time of conception to death that I believe neither of political parties or candidates can claim to be completely consistent with the church teaching. When both political candidates endorse an intrinsically evil act within a non-negotiable, am I justified to either not vote or write in the name of someone of my own consideration? Or am I supposed to make some moral calculations based on number of lives directly affected? Or on what I perceive to be more evil? I grew up in a war torn and violent part of the world...I personally experienced the horrors and violence of war and men of men killing men from incendiary and vilifying rhetoric and propaganda aimed to spread bigotry and hatred among people. These days I fear that I see something similarly ominous in the dark clouds over our society - and I hope I'm wrong here. While I agree with the non-negotiables, my dilemma in choosing what I perceive to be the lesser of 2 evils is far from obvious, and I feel my personal experience should be a big part of that determination.

    Catholics have the obligation to entrust their hearts to Jesus Christ and trust their conscience based on their personal relationship with the Lord and not be led by anyone but the only Shepard of Men.

      Trump, the self-proclaimed "Father of IVF?"
      IVF destroys embryos. Evil. It has become huge business to impregnate women unnaturally using children conceived in petri dishes too many times of donated sperm not of the natural father.
      Never.
      Jesus, I trust in You.

    I appreciate what you’re saying here but both parties are pro abortion on some level so how do you choose… Personally, I chose in my conscience to not vote for the president part of my valid support my decision because neither of them supported getting rid of portion they both support abortion

    • @DivineMercy_Official

    Fr. Alar.. love all you videos. But I have to say that in the first set of pictures or clips. You are talking about choosing a candidate base on moral issues and what the church teaches ( specifically if one party is electing the killing of Babies ( Harris and Biden) he is and was the worst example of a Catholic person let alone a President who is senile. But you show on this ballot the circling of Harris??? Wrong to show that in my opinion.. that section of the clip should have been omitted in my opinion. Because it's showing that someone there is Democratic and or approves of Harris and Harris we al know stands for Pro-choice!.. I have to say that I was not happy to see that ballot being bubbled. I never complain on anything you say. However this time it's disappointing to see the lack of attention. I know you probably meant well. Because ultimately I know you are Prolife and the Marian Fathers teach that.. . 😢

    • @DivineMercy_Official
      @DivineMercy_Official  Місяць тому +1

      Thank you for watching but why would you say this? There is absolutely, unequivocally no showing of anything circling the name Harris. We are fully aware of the problems with their political position. So in all kindness, please verify things before saying what people will read and think is true. If you are referring to the name being circled, it is impossible to read the name. God bless.

    • @loopsmunguia2765
      @loopsmunguia2765 Місяць тому

      @DivineMercy_Official I wouldn't have brought it up at all it I didn't think it looked (Harris) was being bubbled. my eyes....played tricks on me.. I went back and watched it a few time and even took a picture where i was able to zoom in... And I apologize..it is my error 😢. That is why this took me by surprise... and I jumped the gun!! I am so , so sorry... 😢😢
